WP125 – 125×125 Ad Management Plugin for WordPress

Okay, instead of listing my 10 tops plugins, which of course number more than ten, I thought I would introduce you to one that I have found useful if you are running 125 pixel x 125 ads. It’s called WP125, an excellent ad management plugin and easy to use. We use it for our affiliate partners that you can find on the left.

Below you can set a screen shot of setting up each ad. As you can see, it’s pretty straight forward and intuitive. Beyond that, there’s an ad management screen that shows up on your main page of your dashboard.

It has some great features including:

• You can do a one- or two-column display and show as many ads as you want either randomly or in a specified order.
• It will keep track of how many clicks for each ad.
• You can choose how long you want the ad to run, by date or by number of days. It will be taken off on that date and will be moved in an inactive screen where you can activate it again. Or you can choose to remove the ad manually.
• When an ad slot is empty, a placeholder ad of your choice will be displayed. This could be a “Your Ad Here” image linking to a page with statistics and pricing, or an affiliate link.
• You can receive email notifications when an ad expires.

As of this post, it works with 2.8, and we are using it with 2.8.4.

So if you are looking for a simple ad management plugin, WP125 could very well be your answer.
